Lorraine Tasea Losiewicz, age 81, of Lake Orion, Michigan, passed away Tuesday, April 9, 2024.
Lorraine was born in Detroit on May 12, 1942. She graduated from Clarkston High School, where she served in the Civil Air Patrol. After high school, she was a bluebird troop leader, a mail carrier for the USPS, and the longtime cook and kitchen manager at the Lake Orion Harvest Table Restaurant.

In her later years, she worked as a Special Eucharist Minister at St. Joseph Hospital and enjoyed nearly two decades as a snowbird in Seminole, Florida.
She was known for her generous, gentle, giving spirit and her soft spot for cow decor. She always offered encouraging words and was an eternal optimist.

She is survived by siblings Patti, Linda, and Michael Juliano, and Donna Juliano-Altemann; Katherine and Paula Koneda; children John Biller, Mary (Doug) Robbins, Chris Biller; grandchildren Chad, Paige, Jeremy, Laurie, Curtis, and Susie; great-grandchildren, Jaxon and Rylyn.
